I got a great recipe from Better Homes and Gardens. It was super quick and super yummy. Make it when you have fresh corn and green pepper and chicken is on sale.

12 oz chicken breast
4 ears corn
32 oz chicken broth
1 green bell pepper
1 cup milk
1 1/4 cup instant mashed potato flakes (make it with the best brand you know - this is what really makes the recipe)

Boil broth, chicken and corn in a pot then simmer 12 minutes. I cut the corn off the cob first, it makes it easier.
Take the chicken out and shred with a fork. Return the chicken along with half of the bell pepper, milk and potato flakes. Heat through and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serves 4 (or more), garnish with red pepper flakes and rest of bell pepper.

Enjoy!!!
